Michael Carrick disagrees with Sky Sports pundit’s Man Utd claim after blowing win vs Tottenham

Manchester United manager Michael Carrick rejected suggestions from Sky Sports pundit Jamie Redknapp that a lack of confidence caused his team's slow start in a 1-1 draw against Tottenham Hotspur. United surrendered a 1-0 lead at Old Trafford despite Tottenham playing with ten men following Rodrigo Bentancur's red card for headbutting Luke Shaw. Dominic Solanke scored a late equalizer to leave United with six points from their opening matches.

Following the match, Redknapp criticized United's structure and midfield cohesion, claiming the squad is devoid of confidence and insufficient for Carrick to succeed. Carrick acknowledged fan frustration and booing at the final whistle but maintained that confidence was not the root issue behind their performance.
